See some reactions below: 

@maureen_omeni: “If it’s the hospital’s policy to commit their activities in God’s hand first, it’s not a bad policy. What the patient want is cure, God Is the ultimate healer. I will prefer to relax in this place than to rush where they will leave big towel in my stomach after major surgery.”

@precosor: “I won’t name the company, but I recall sometime in 2015 I worked for this pharmaceutical company in Lagos and the MD made employees assemble to pray and praise God before resuming work for the day.”

@Danielbeloved28: “This is so wrong 😑 What if a patient died? And Christ Jesus said, “The sabbath was made for man’s sake; not man for the sabbath for the son of man is Lord over the sabbath!”

@GabrielNaija: “There’s a reason why that unit of the hospital is called “Emergency”. Emergency units are designed to function 24/7. If the regulatory agencies are doing their jobs then this hospital should not have a license. And by the way I am a Christian.”

@RitzyMoi: “This is so wrong. There is time for everything for Christ’s sake. You can be holding your devotion while emergency cases are attended to if you must hold it as a corporate entity. This is wrong! The Bible calls us to be diligent in our duties. They r called to save lives!!!”

@manah__mathew: “Îf you come to Nigeria hospitals recently,you will weep for us as a people You can’t differentiate between government and private hospital ín terms of this morning devotion. Private hospital will charge you 10k to see a pediatric but at end of the day,na general doctor you gosee.”
